FINGER-RING.

SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 460,103, dated September 29, 1891. Application filed October 2, 1890- Serial No. 366,871. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, PHILIP D. BANGHART, a citizen of the United States, residing at Petoskey, in the county of Emmet and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Ring, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in rings applicable to finger-rings, scarf -rings, bracelets, and the like, its object being to show the stone-setting to advantage and to produce a noveland cheap setting Without the employment of the so-called claws or box which cover a part of the stone so set and my invention consists in the features of novelty to be hereinafter described, and then pointed out in the claim.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a finger-ring set with a stone after my improved method. Fig. 2 is a section through the stone-setting, showing the method of attaching it to a ring.

1 may represent a linger-ring, scarf-ring, bracelet, or the like, which in the present instance is constructed of wire of gold, silver, or any other metal desired, and the ends of which are turned out together at 2 to form a post or projection 3.

at represents the stone-setting, in which is drilled a hole or socket 5, in which is put a filling of cement 6, in which cement is embedded the post 3 of the ring inserted in the hole or socket 5. \Vhen the cement hardens, the setting 4 will be firmly secured to the ring and the stone will be disclosed to advantage, there being no claws or the like to hide a portion of the stone. 7

My invention includes all rings and like articles for personal adornment on which drilled stones or other substances can be set, as above set forth.

The rings or hands may be made of wire, wire rope, twisted wire, broad or narrow circles, and in fact may be made of any design in which the metal may be wrought.

What I claim is The herein-described ring, the meeting ends of which are formed in a post or projection, in combination with a setting provided with a hole or socket, said socket being filled with cement, wherein said post or projection is embedded, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.

PHILIP D. BANGHART. \Vitnesses:
